Cuando en 1607 se fundó Jamestown, el primer asentamiento inglés en América, los españoles ya estaban establecidos en Florida y Nuevo México, eran dueños de un vasto territorio al sur y habían descubierto y colonizado parcialmente el interior del continente. Superaron también a los ingleses en humanidad, justicia y amabilidad hacia los nativos.Este volumen ofrece primero la historia del descubrimiento y la conquista; luego, las aventuras de pioneros notables, como Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, Andrés Docampo, Juan de Padilla, Gaspar Pérez de Villagrán o Francisco Pizarro, e incluye capítulos sobre los constructores de iglesias, las ciudades del cielo, las misiones y otros hitos civilizatorios. Lummis declara que los exploradores españoles no solo fueron más audaces que los ingleses, sino que su política hacia los nativos fue sabia, humana y justa, en fuerte contraste con la de los colonos de Nueva Inglaterra. 10
